Onyx
There is something classic about the look of this deck. It captures the feel of the cultural era that produced it. Funky and a bit psychedelic this deck shows a sense of history but also a timeless feel in the images.
We all have our own favorite cards and least favorite cards. In decks we love it can be a hard choice. My favorites can change daily. The other cards I somtimes simply need to work with them to gain an appreciation for their voice and symbolism.
On a personal note, I have a minor issue with some decks. I have been the object of joking when I mention this but I do not like to use decks for readings what have nudity in them. It seems that some decks have just loads of naked people in them. I may be prudish or repressed and I am okay with that but I love seeing decks that are beautifully created but don’t have to have nudity. I was thankful that this deck though has the expected nude images they are tastefully covered.
My Favorite Card in the deck is the Three of Cups. It is the image on the box but I love the way that the woman seems to explode from the water with the three foaming, overflowing goblets. This card just communicates to me the sense of emotional, watery abundance.
My Least Favorite Card in the deck is the deck is the Five of Pentacles. It was a tough choice and I flipped through the deck for half an hour trying to decide which one I could use. It came down to the idea that this card does not express as well as the others. I do not see “Material Trouble” looking at this card because it seems to be a sense of gain in finding the golden rose. Given the keyword for the Fives as “Motivation”, I would consider this almost a card about greed expressing a desire for easy and quick gain. In this sense, I can see the card conveying that message.
Anyone else care to share what is their favorite card and why?
